KJVAnd the LORDH3068 spakeH1696(H8762) unto MosesH4872, sayingH559(H8800),
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall encamp opposite it by the sea.
KJVSpeakH1696(H8761) unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that they turnH7725(H8799) and encampH2583(H8799) beforeH6440 PihahirothH6367, between MigdolH4024 and the seaH3220, over againstH6440 BaalzephonH1189: beforeH5226 it shall ye encampH2583(H8799) by the seaH3220.
3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, ‘They are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in.’
KJVFor PharaohH6547 will sayH559(H8804) of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, They are entangledH943(H8737) in the landH776, the wildernessH4057 hath shut them inH5462(H8804).
4 I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will follow after them; and I will get honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies; and the Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh.” They did so.
KJVAnd I will hardenH2388(H8765) Pharaoh'sH6547 heartH3820, that he shall followH7291(H8804) afterH310 them; and I will be honouredH3513(H8735) upon PharaohH6547, and upon all his hostH2428; that the EgyptiansH4714 may knowH3045(H8804) that I am the LORDH3068. And they didH6213(H8799) so.

KJVAnd it was toldH5046(H8714) the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 that the peopleH5971 fledH1272(H8804): and the heartH3824 of PharaohH6547 and of his servantsH5650 was turnedH2015(H8735) against the peopleH5971, and they saidH559(H8799), Why have we doneH6213(H8804) this, that we have let IsraelH3478 goH7971(H8765) from servingH5647(H8800) us?
6 He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him;
KJVAnd he made readyH631(H8799) his chariotH7393, and tookH3947(H8804) his peopleH5971 with him:
7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, with captains over all of them.
KJVAnd he tookH3947(H8799) sixH8337 hundredH3967 chosenH977(H8803) chariotsH7393, and all the chariotsH7393 of EgyptH4714, and captainsH7991 over every one of them.
8 Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
KJVAnd the LORDH3068 hardenedH2388(H8762) the heartH3820 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and he pursuedH7291(H8799) afterH310 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 went outH3318(H8802) with an highH7311(H8802) handH3027.
9 The Egyptians pursued them. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
KJVBut the EgyptiansH4714 pursuedH7291(H8799) afterH310 them, all the horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 of PharaohH6547, and his horsemenH6571, and his armyH2428, and overtookH5381(H8686) them encampingH2583(H8802) by the seaH3220, beside PihahirothH6367, beforeH6440 BaalzephonH1189.

KJVAnd when PharaohH6547 drew nighH7126(H8689), the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 lifted upH5375(H8799) their eyesH5869, and, behold, the EgyptiansH4714 marchedH5265(H8802) afterH310 them; and they were soreH3966 afraidH3372(H8799): and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 cried outH6817(H8799) unto the LORDH3068.
11 They said to Moses, “Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us out of Egypt?
KJVAnd they saidH559(H8799) unto MosesH4872, Because there were no gravesH6913 in EgyptH4714, hast thou taken us awayH3947(H8804) to dieH4191(H8800) in the wildernessH4057? whereforeH2063 hast thou dealtH6213(H8804) thus with us, to carry us forthH3318(H8687) out of EgyptH4714?
12 Isn’t this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, ‘Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
KJVIs not this the wordH1697 that we did tellH1696(H8765) thee in EgyptH4714, sayingH559(H8800), Let us aloneH2308(H8798), that we may serveH5647(H8799) the EgyptiansH4714? For it had been betterH2896 for us to serveH5647(H8800) the EgyptiansH4714, than that we should dieH4191(H8800) in the wildernessH4057.
13 Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you today; for you will never again see the Egyptians whom you have seen today.

14 Yahweh will fight for you, and you shall be still.”
KJVThe LORDH3068 shall fightH3898(H8735) for you, and ye shall hold your peaceH2790(H8686).
15 Yahweh said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.
KJVAnd the LORDH3068 saidH559(H8799) unto MosesH4872, Wherefore criestH6817(H8799) thou unto me? speakH1696(H8761) unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that they go forwardH5265(H8799):
16 Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. Then the children of Israel shall go into the middle of the sea on dry ground.

KJVAnd I, behold, I will hardenH2388(H8764) the heartsH3820 of the EgyptiansH4714, and they shall followH935(H8799) themH310: and I will get me honourH3513(H8735) upon PharaohH6547, and upon all his hostH2428, upon his chariotsH7393, and upon his horsemenH6571.
18 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh when I have gotten myself honor over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.”
KJVAnd the EgyptiansH4714 shall knowH3045(H8804) that I am the LORDH3068, when I have gotten me honourH3513(H8736) upon PharaohH6547, upon his chariotsH7393, and upon his horsemenH6571.
19 The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.
KJVAnd the angelH4397 of GodH430, which wentH1980(H8802) beforeH6440 the campH4264 of IsraelH3478, removedH5265(H8799) and wentH3212(H8799) behindH310 them; and the pillarH5982 of the cloudH6051 wentH5265(H8799) from before their faceH6440, and stoodH5975(H8799) behindH310 them:
20 It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. There was the cloud and the darkness, yet it gave light by night. One didn’t come near the other all night.
KJVAnd it cameH935(H8799) between the campH4264 of the EgyptiansH4714 and the campH4264 of IsraelH3478; and it was a cloudH6051 and darknessH2822 to them, but it gave lightH215(H8686) by nightH3915 to these: so that the one came not nearH7126(H8804) the otherH2088 all the nightH3915.
21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and Yahweh caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
KJVAnd MosesH4872 stretched outH5186(H8799) his handH3027 over the seaH3220; and the LORDH3068 caused the seaH3220 to goH3212(H8686) back by a strongH5794 eastH6921 windH7307 all that nightH3915, and madeH7760(H8799) the seaH3220 dryH2724 land, and the watersH4325 were dividedH1234(H8735).

25 He took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, “Let’s flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh fights for them against the Egyptians!”
KJVAnd took offH5493(H8686) their chariotH4818 wheelsH212, that they draveH5090(H8762) them heavilyH3517: so that the EgyptiansH4714 saidH559(H8799), Let us fleeH5127(H8799) from the faceH6440 of IsraelH3478; for the LORDH3068 fightethH3898(H8737) for them against the EgyptiansH4714.

28 The waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even all Pharaoh’s army that went in after them into the sea. There remained not so much as one of them.
KJVAnd the watersH4325 returnedH7725(H8799), and coveredH3680(H8762) the chariotsH7393, and the horsemenH6571, and all the hostH2428 of PharaohH6547 that cameH935(H8802) into the seaH3220 afterH310 them; there remainedH7604(H8738) not so much asH5704 oneH259 of them.
